Description
Is it possible to detect if the face in front of the camera is blinking his/her eyes? This will really help to mitigate simple loopholes like using a life-size image of a person, especially when camera lacks IR.

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating Howdy's face-authentication and camera-processing flow, then determine whether blink detection can be integrated with the existing Linux authentication path. Done would require a documented approach and tests showing that blinking distinguishes a live face from a life-size image.
